A premium, live, sourdough starter gift kit for anyone who has wanted to bake real sourdough at home. The gift that keeps on rising..
Made using just flour and water, and fed daily for over ten years, this live active sourdough starter kit includes everything needed to begin baking homemade artisan bread from scratch.
The Sourdough Cult began with a family starter passed down through generations of bakers in Cheshire, UK. Raised by people who genuinely love baking, sharing bread and obsessing over fermentation, this kit is our way of passing the cult on.
Because sourdough people are a bit of a cult.
One day you bake a loaf. Next thing you know, you’re talking about hydration percentages at dinner, checking on your starter before bed, and becoming strangely emotionally attached to a bubbling jar of flour and water.
This beautifully gift-boxed initiation kit is designed for beginners, future bread obsessives and anyone ready to become a willing servant to their starter. With its dark, bakery-inspired aesthetic and premium presentation, it makes a brilliant self-purchase for aspiring bakers or a unique gift for anyone who loves beautiful food, cosy kitchens and handmade bread.
Inside the box you’ll find:
• Live sourdough starter (wet, not dried) in a reusable food-safe jar with a handy rise tracker
• 20g packet of premium bread flour for your first feeding
• Simple starter care instructions and recipe
• QR code access to our online guides and FAQs
With a little feeding, you could be baking your very first loaf the next day.
Your starter is happiest kept at room temperature and fed daily, although it can be refrigerated if you bake less often.
We recommend feeding it shortly after arrival to get it active and bubbling again.
Sending as a gift? Let us know your preferred delivery date in the personalisation box. The starter can comfortably stay ambient for up to 7 days following dispatch.
Feed your starter. Bake beautiful bread. Convert others.
